I know the feeling. Had a weeks hols last week. Got back Saturday night. First thing I did was check the forum - then I fed the cats who'd been screaming at me since I got home as my neighbour had finished feeding them that morning :)

% mins = 300 seconds I'm guessing :wink:

I think we're going to have to start turning Birdy's mini-meets into D70 Users Anonymous... except for that we all know each others names (and attendance is recorded anyway)... besides that, it won't help the addiction, only worsen your financial situation.

Thanks Pater and Leigh, yes well trip went well managed to get sensor cleaned as well at this place and well he doesn't do it quiet the way we do it, no mounting on tripod or anything and looked like he put a pec pad on a thin art brush. Also he had a smirk and gigle as he told me to get a blower so then i showed him the rocket. LOL

Anyhow job done and well it was a freebie and did it on the spot for there and then in about 10 mins. Gave me some advice about lens he said always if using a zoom lens to use the action like on the kit lens in and out a few times and make sure it is at its 18mm when you attach the lens as he said it works like a pump if u put it on and is not at 18m end when u adjust your zoom it will blow the dust from the lens into camera. Make since.
Cheers
